베이커 하우스 호텔

We stayed at the Baker House hoping to celebrate our anniversary. The house must have been a hundred degrees so they brought a small dirty fan up into our room. The furniture is all old with springs popping through worn filthy cushions. We had stayed in the past and they had included breakfast and there was staff on site then. This time we were left completely alone in the house and when we called the number on the check in card for after hours it went straight to voicemail. Also apparently no more breakfast is included just a bowl of half rotten fruit sitting on the community table. The $48 brunch the next morning also offered moldy fruit. We sat on the front porch where the tables aren’t even dining tables but end tables so we smacked our knees against the legs and couldn’t even push in our chairs to eat properly. An older man who I believe was the owner was yelling and swearing at his employees at the front desk when we were in the bar area. I don’t think he knew we could hear but the entire experience was so disheartening , uncomfortable and just disgusting we will never ever go back. Such a shame such a beautiful house is being run into the ground by a man who obviously cares nothing for the quality of the food or maintaining the house or even having enough professionalism not to swear and scream at his employees in front of the guests. Zero stars. So disappointing. Worst anniversary ever thanks to the bad choice we made going there. We definitely won’t be back and I’ll be posting this review on every site possible to warn others not to let Baker House destroy anyone else’s special occasion.

The property itself was beautiful and so was the room. It was unique, and it felt like I was stepping into a luxury 1800s suite. However, since this is such an old building, you can hear everything from the upstairs. On both mornings that we stayed, we heard every single footstep from the person living upstairs starting at 7am to 8am, until they left. There was no noise insulation, and it was really unfortunate to be woken up every morning because of the very, very thin walls and ceilings. Also, make sure to turn the dial on the wall *off* otherwise music will start playing starting at 8am. We weren’t aware of this and therefore were awoken again at 8am by music. Also your stay may irritate your allergies if you are allergic to dust. But aside from that, the complimentary breakfast was very delicious, the included Sunday brunch was delicious, and the rooms and the house itself was gorgeous. Everyone was also very nice.

Restored home with lots of period decor and furnishings. Beautiful views of Lake Geneva. Unique Speakeasy in basement. Very special place updated without destroying period styles.
